About: I will be happy to take care of your dog/dogs. My family and me have a lot of experience in doing so since we have our own dog, and often do dog sitting for our friends. I am studying online, and my parents work online full time. We have a lot of time and desire to make your dog’s stay with us comfortable. We are available at any time. I live in a big house with my family. We have a fenced backyard. We also have a super friendly Shetland Sheepdog, who will keep your fur baby company. We also live close to a huge park.

About: Hi, I'm from Colombia. I love animals, especially dogs and cats. I've had pets all my life, so I know how important and valuable they are to us. With me you'll find an excellent caregiver; I love playing with them, taking them for walks, feeding them. You can fully trust me to leave your four-legged friend. I have full-time availability every day of the week, including weekends. Since I don't have other work commitments right now, my schedule is incredibly flexible. I can easily accommodate your pet's specific feeding, walking, and playtime routines at any time. When staying at your home, I strictly follow your rules and routines to keep your pet comfortable. I ensure all doors and gates are securely locked, maintain a clean space, and provide regular photo updates so you can have complete peace of mind while you are away.

Monika was absolutely fantastic! She stepped in on short notice to watch my female German Shepherd for three days, doing drop-in visits in our home, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My dog clearly had an amazing time - she loved her walks and came back happy and relaxed. Monika kept me at ease the entire time by sending regular photos and status updates, which I really appreciated. I felt completely comfortable knowing my baby was in such caring and trustworthy hands. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive sitter!

Jessica was able to sit for us on short notice and took care of our fur babies during the holiday season. She was flexible, able to administer medicine and spent time playing with our cats to help de-stress them while we were away.

About: I've had cats and dogs my entire life and, for the first time, find myself without any pets. I have an abundance of ear scratches, belly rubs, and snuggles just waiting for pets who are missing their people. My husband and I both work from home with flexible schedules so are available for frequent potty breaks, walks, and playtime. We also have two children, 8 and 11, who both grew up with dogs and cats and are experienced and comfortable with both. Your pet will be the only one in our home, so they will get lots of attention, playtime, and snuggles! We have a big house that pets are free to explore and where they can make themselves at home. We also have an unfenced 3-acre backyard that connects to a path through the woods - your dog can enjoy a daily hike through the forest, smelling the many interesting smells and splashing in the creek if so desired. And we live on a cul-de-sac in a residential area perfect for safe neighborhood walks. If you are looking for someone who loves dogs and is responsible and loving to take care of your pups when you're not around, please reach out! Please note: 1. All dogs must be fully potty trained, neutered or spayed, vaccinated, and on flea and tick preventative. All pets must be comfortable with children. 2. Drop off time: 7:30 am to 6:00 pm Pick up time: 7:30 am to 9:00 pm 3. Things to bring: a. Bed or blanket or crate, whichever your pet prefers. b. Food and treats, along with feeding instructions. Please bring 2-3 extra days' worth of food in case of delays. Any unused food and treats will be returned. c. Any medications or supplements for your pet. Please bring prescription medications in their original containers along with clear written instructions. d. For a dog, a collar with name tag and phone number and a harness if used for walks. e. Any special toys.

About: I am currently only accepting hypoallergenic dogs for boarding and doggy daycare! These include but are not limited to: Bichon, Poodles (or any doodle), Yorkies, Maltese, and Schnauzer. I own two dogs, one is a young Miniature Goldendoodle that I have had since she was a couple of months old, and the other is a senior Toy Poodle that I have had since she was 5 years old. I have 10 years of experience caring for animals and always research how to best care for the animal in question. I have 2 years of experience with professional pet sitting. I am currently a student living at home, so I have plenty of time to care for pets, especially since I care for my own. I am available most of the week, every week. My yard is unfenced; however, we do have a chicken-wire fence in the backyard for my own dog, who has plenty of space to run around and play. We have lots of toys for your fur baby, and a kind and playful dog to keep your fur baby company. I can crate small dogs, but do not have large enough crates for large or medium dogs. If caring for your pet at your home, I can ensure your fur baby gets lots of playtime and walks.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I can remember. From house sitting, to walking them, to even taking care of my own dog. I’ve worked with different breeds and ages, and I love them all! I stay at home mostly throughout the week, and I’ve been wanting to get out a couple of times, and this would be the perfect opportunity to take care of your dogs in walking, or dropping by to play! I live in an apartment complex, so I would have to go to where you are to walk/play with your dog, or I could take them to a dog park!

Jina is awesome! We were referred to Jina when our regular cat sitter was unavailable and would definitely work with her again. She spent a lot of time playing with and petting our cats, making sure medications were given, cleaned the litter boxes regularly and asked questions as they came up. She also brought in an extremely heavy package that was delivered early which was totally not expected but always appreciated. Thank you so much Jina! It’s so nice relaxing on vacation knowing our cats are well taken care of

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was around 16, helping my friend take care of their dog when they needed to go on vacation and whenever I would visit. Additionally, I’ve taken care of my sister’s dog for extended periods of time. I’m currently on winter break from college, so I’ll be here for about 3-4 more weeks. So for the time being, I should be available about every day except for Sunday. I have a fenced yard and large home. I can care for a pet in just about any place around my home at almost all times.

Mark was fantastic! He put us at ease the whole time we were away not just with great photos but with amazing information about how our two cats were doing and confirming everything was taken care of. He really went the extra mile and offered to do more than what we asked. He was reliable, kind, and the cats were clearly very comfortable with him. We would love to use him again in the future!

About: I have pet care experience with all ages/kinds of pets, whether it be puppies, big dogs, small dogs, anxious dogs (like my own), or cats! I take pride in my patience and empathy when working with pets. I’ve taken care of several puppies and work strongly on training during my care! I’m currently taking a gap year after graduating from college while I apply for nursing school! Luckily that means I have plenty of free time when I am not working my restaurant job. I have my own transportation and am looking for pet care jobs at least a few times a week! I am also available for overnight pet care! In my home, I have two dogs and one cat. I share responsibility of feeding them, taking them on walks, play time, and enforcing rules (such as no begging, no jumping, etc.). I always want to make sure the pets I care for are happy and their lives are enriched!!

Don inspired immediate trust with his excellent level of communication and gentle approach with our cats. We have two ancient Bengals, one who requires meds, and because of his previous experience, I could relax and know she would get her meds. He sent us pics each day and we came home to happy cats and a clean house. We will definitely be using Don again when we go away!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - North Potomac

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in North Potomac on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 7,757 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across North Potomac. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Potomac. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
